V3FIGHTS: HARTLEY SET FOR HIS FIRST TITLE DEFENSE ON AUGUST 2/14

With all of the hype surrounding the V3Fights’ main event on August 2 in
Nashville, TN, remember that there will also be a title on the line when
champion, Justin Hartley, fights in his hometown to take on Irvin Jones.

Hartley is currently 6-1 and fights out of Nashville MMA. He won the
welterweight title back in March with a split decision victory over Aaron
Osborn.

But Hartley didn’t go out and pursue MMA to become a fighter, but to stay
in shape and find something to do to occupy his time so he wouldn’t be out
in the streets getting in trouble since he had a kid and needed to
straighten up. Now he is the top welterweight fighter in the division and
has a target on his back with everyone gunning for the champ, and he is
okay with that.

“It feels really good to be the champ. I’ve worked really hard in the
gym to get where I am and I don’t plan on letting somebody take that from me.
And it feels great putting my belt on the line in front of my hometown”
states Hartley.

One of those fighters gunning for Hartley’s title is Irvin Jones. Jones
definitely has a size advantage in this fight, however Hartley doesn’t seem
to be too worried about it.

“I’m good everywhere, so I can take the fight wherever it needs to go,
but I’d rather stand and bang. Irvin is a big, strong guy, but not technical
enough to hang with me and I feel that the fight will end by me knocking
him out or submitting him” states Hartley.

Hartley also wanted to leave this last message for his opponent….
“Bring a pillow and blanket because you are going night night.”
